About: As a supervisor at the Humane Society, I tend to all of the animals in the building and ensure each employee is doing their best to provide humane care for every animal. Working at a shelter requires fast and clear communication, so updates while you’re away will come to you right away. I treat every pet as if they’re my own and do whatever I can to provide them with a safe, stress free and loving experience. I’ve had animals all my life and worked with countless medical and behavioral cases. I’m currently working full time and am available all day on Sundays and Mondays. I’m always available to sit nights. Willing to accommodate scheduling needs upon request. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. As an experienced animal handler, I’m attentive to animal behavior, stress levels, and individual needs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, medications, and supervision, while keeping a clean and secure environment at all times. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and keep owners updated with regular messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I can accommodate any needs in a client’s home. My own home is an apartment so boarding services are limited but am willing to take inquiries.
About: I have experience with boarding and walking a variety of dogs from young, untrained puppies to larger dogs. I can be relied on to check-in/walk your pets while you are at work or can take on longer multiple day stays. I’m currently a biology PhD student and my schedule currently allows for great flexibility to adapt to your pet’s needs. I’m highly communicative and excited to work with you so you feel at ease leaving your pet in my care :) I am currently a graduate student with a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to work from home if needed so I can give your pets greater attention. Otherwise, I may go in for a morning or afternoon, but have the flexibility to return home for frequent walks. I currently live with my boyfriend in Victoria Park in Ft. Lauderdale in a very pet friendly, walkable neighborhood. I’m only a couple blocks from Holiday Park where I often take any pets that come to stay with me :)
About: I’ve always been a helping hand when it comes to caring for pets, and family and friends have trusted me to watch their dogs whenever they needed someone reliable. I’m dependable, communicative, and adapt well to different pets and environments even snakes! Joining Rover felt like the perfect opportunity to provide that same level of care to pet owners outside of my own circle. I’m currently working part-time, so I have flexibility in my schedule to give your pets plenty of attention and care. I’m available for pet sitting and boarding on weekends, as well as weekdays before 4 p.m. My schedule may adjust once school starts, but I’ll always make sure to communicate my availability clearly. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines and any instructions they provide. I make sure pets are fed, have access to water, get plenty of attention and playtime, and are taken outside or given opportunities to use the restroom as needed. I’m very attentive to their needs and will communicate with the owner if anything seems unusual or if they need anything extra.
About: I've been pet-sitting for over half of my life - starting at age 10 up until now. I discovered my passion for pet-sitting when I was about eight years old. My journey began as a pet-sitter for a family friend's dog who would eventually be given to me and become my best friend for 10 years. With one dog at home, I was eager to take care of more. Through word of mouth, I had garnered an impressive amount of clients . I have experience handling animals from fish to horses and everything in between. I've yet to meet an animal that I didn't connect with and I've yet to meet a dissatisfied owner. Most owners will leave me with, "You're the only person that I trust to take care of my animals." I take pride in my work as a pet-sitter and to me, that's the greatest testament to how much I care about each and every pet that I take care of. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, as it’s my full-time job alongside being a student. I carefully balance my study schedule with pet care visits, ensuring that each pet receives the attention they need—whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just companionship. I schedule visits during breaks in my day to make sure I’m meeting the pets’ needs while staying on top of my coursework. With pet sitting as my main focus outside of school, I’m able to provide personalized care and ensure each pet feels loved while their owners are away. Whether in my home or a client's home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment for the pet. In my home, I provide a pet-friendly space where they can relax, play, and follow their usual routine. At a client’s home, I respect their space while sticking to the pet’s feeding, exercise, and care schedule. I ensure each pet feels secure, loved, and well-cared for, whether it's keeping them company, following special instructions, or just offering some extra attention to make them feel at ease.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, I now have 2 cats. I’ve done puppy and senior dog care. I’m experienced with cat care, litter boxes and medications, nail clippings and more. Pet sitting will be my full source of income, and something I enjoy and will have an open schedule for. Available weekdays and weekends. On weekends preferably morning to early afternoon. My dogs always had a fenced yard, but I moved into an apartment so they went on multiple walks a day due to not having a yard. Fed twice a day, walks throughout the entire day. I’m experienced with giving dogs medicine and shots due to one of mine having diabetes. I am very experienced with puppies I’ve had three. Adaptable to anything that a pet owner requests for their dogs care. I currently own 2 cats, one is 6 the other is 2. One male one female, my female is a rescue so I’m experienced with more timid/shy cats. I know cleaning litter schedules, importance of dry/wet food diets.
About: I’ve had animals in life since I was fifteen years old and wouldn’t have it any other way! My family considers them as another family member! I currently work remote so my schedule is extremely flexible. I can come several times a day or can even stay for extended periods of time to provide companionship. I would much rather take care of any pets in their own homes so they are as comfortable as they can be. Rather than bringing them to mine where they could be stressed since I already own a few rascals of my own.

“Melissa provided excellent care during her drop-in visits for my three outdoor cats while I was out of town. She was dependable and caring, which gave me peace of mind throughout my trip. Knowing my cats were in such good hands allowed me to truly relax while I was away. Melissa is reliable, communicates well, and genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter. I will absolutely be booking her again for future trips and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to friends and family.”

Leo has been very responsible when taking care of my two cats, who are also really shy. I could even tell from the photos that he was able to gain their trust in a short amount of time, which is quite difficult to do. I would definitely book him again without hesitation and highly recommend him
She did an amazing job and was very trustworthy. She took excellent care of my cat, and by the second day, my cat was already looking forward to seeing her and enjoying being petted by her. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my cat was in such good hands. I would definitely love to book her again!
Michelle is absolutely amazing! She gave me such peace of mind and my fur babies could not have been taken better care of. She's very responsive, took the time to get my one sick baby to eat when he was NOT into it, and she sent me frame worthy pictures daily. Michelle, you're a freaking ROCK STAR 😻
Amazing experience as always. Andrea is so patient and kind with our cats. We always know they are safe and loved when we’re away. She provides the very best care during each drop-in visit and her service never feels rushed. Also very detail oriented. Happy repeat customer. ❤️

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
